Diff statistics for difftree / whatchanged, or diff shortstat is a bit costly, as it needs to generate and examine diff, and not only compare trees. Besides --numstat doesn't support renames well now, but that might not be an obstacle.
Lines of code and file sizes: file size needs additional invocation per each file for gitweb; it would be easier for cgit. Costly! Counting LOC is even more costly: take note that 1.) gitweb operates directly on repository / object database, and does not use working area, 2.) git is snapshot based and not changeset based.
Of course like in the case of other costly features this migh be enabled at will using %feature hash...
